Corporations pay +20% tax on profits, then provide jobs to people which are then taxed 30-50%. Corporations are providing loads of value to society. How on earth is this not enough?
Honestly, if this is not enough money for the government to operate there are serious spending and accountability problems. A governments primary purpose is to protect rights of individuals. Its job is not to run the world. If we really want to help the middle class lets just let them keep more of the money they earn.
- vidarh 9y agoThis is specifically targeting companies that are shifting profits around to avoid those 20%+ on profits by setting rules that are harder to work around.
- esarbe 9y agoThere's a problem when these companies use international treaties and agreements to pay less tax than your local carpenter or grocery store or their own cleaning staff. It's a government's primary purpose to protect the rights of individuals. What these multinationals are doing is theft on all the other players.
